" I have a yamaha malta. It dosn&#39;t often get used as it is my spare engine. I tried it the other day and noticed that there did not appear to be any coolant water coming out anywhere. I have replaced the impeller which was worn but there is still no sign of any water being expelled. It is a long time since I last used it and cant remember whether there should be water coming out of a &#39;tell tale&#39; or not. Does anybody know if there should be a sign of checking whether water is being circulated? Also what Hp is a malta, Iv&#39;e been told that it is a 5hp is this right or are there various sizes? "

Malta is always 3 hp. It is normal if only a very little spray of cooling water is coming out even in high revs.
